1142 Arch St, Berkeley, CA 94708

Step through the door to 1962! Designed by Walter Bearden, this true mid-century style home looks just the way it did when it was custom built for the Berkeley family that lived here for over 50 years. Characteristic of the period, this home is one level with a functional floor plan and a spacious, streamlined simplicity. The house is beautifully sited on a large lot, with stunning views of the entire bay from almost every room, including a priceless view of the Golden Gate Bridge. The living room, with its vaulted ceilings, dramatic fireplace, and walls of glass is just begging for the final indoor/outdoor touch - a deck that was included in the original plans and was never built, but should be... a perfect project for the proud new owner! Located in the sweet spot of North Berkeley, just high enough to get a great view, but close enough to walk to the Gourmet Ghetto or Solano Avenue. A rare opportunity to live on this quiet street where all the neighbors know each other. How 1962 is that?
